The tab for e in Bar 14 is missing the + sign. Otherwise, looks good.
Thanks for spotting that! Just made the correction and tried to increase the resolution a bit as well.
Practicing this is the most fun I have had with the whistle! Even though I am a beginner I can play a couple of lines already. 
Heard, enjoyed and now learning.
My prayers with yours for your Evlin Rose.
Feadan, best wishes for your daughter’s recovery.

Thanks very much for the well wishes, killthemessenger. I’m very pleased for the prayers and thoughts of all, so thanks to you too, riverman. 
Feadan, my ex-wife (mother of my daughter) died of cancer recently because she decided to trust in the power of prayer rather than get any treatment. Evidently she preferred sainthood to seeing her daughter grow up. So best, and most sincere, wishes for your daughter’s recovery - but I hope you’re getting her proper medical attention. Playing the whistle isn’t going to do it.

PLEASE let’s not turn this thread for my daughter’s recovery onto a religion flame war!
PLEASE! I don’t want this thread to get locked because folks can’t agree to disagree and just play nice.
I have enough stress going on right now, thank you. Please don’t add to it by dissing good intentions of replies here. If you take exception to posts then read another thread or take it up with the poster via a PM.
Thanks,
DdlB
Don’t worry Feadan. Thread will just be taken for a little gentle dusting and emerge again good as new. I continue to send good wishes.
I apologize to everyone for being inflammatory with my last post. It is not my intention to antagonize people.
I will learn this and have good thoughts in my heart.
I believe good thoughts and positive energy can’t hurt.
Hello David, I read and listened to your post and just wanted to say that my thoughts and prayers are with your family, particularly with Evlin. I too believe in the healing power of positive thought and prayer, especially thru music. I have been comforted and inspired by an Irish monk who also believes in the healing power of music: http://www.brotherseamus.ie/home.html
Your music prayer is beautiful.
and when everyone is talking about those good thoughts and positive energy with healing power thru music…
that is “eternal positive energy”
A brief update. Evlin had a marrow transplant in the wee hours of Friday night/Saturday morning. Since her brother, Colin, was not a match (35% chance) we are very fortunate that a match was found in the national database (50% chance). The transplant itself (on Evlin’s end of it) was somewhat of a non-event. It pretty much amounts to a long IV drip. The marrow stem cells somehow know where they are supposed to go and end up in the recipient’s marrow. The next few weeks will be telling as her body and the new cells decide how they will treat each other. There are still looming risks that include Host vs. Graft Disease, liver damage, kidney damage, etc.
Saturday Evlin was in and out of sleep due to mostly to drugs. I sat with her and rubbed her back when requested, read a chapter out of a novel to her, played some quiet pipe tunes on my technopipes, and indulged in idle chat and joking around. I had to spend Sunday at home catching up on chores and having a 4 hour meeting/rehearsal with 3 other musicians for upcoming St. Pat’s gigs. The music was a good diversion. “Evlin Rose” is toward the end of our first set.
Evlin appreciates all the prayers, thoughts, and well wishes as do I!
Our hopes and prayers continue to go out for Evlin.
I just saw this post. Most of it is over a month old. As one living with an advanced cancer, it touches me. And the air is beautiful. I will learn it.
Music helps to del with pain . . . especially beautiful airs. I know.
Past due for an update, but life has been so busy…
Evlin had her marrow transplant on Feb 24th (as noted in previous post). Essentially it amounted to a very long IV drip of marrow stem cells. She then had to contend with the aftermath which included sores in her mouth & digestive tract (a normal side effect) for about a month. Also loss of hair finally extended to eyebrows & eyelashes. The hospital kept her pretty sedated throughout to have her as comfortable as possible. She finally got to leave the hospital the first week of April and had a transition period in an efficiency apartment at the Ronald McDonald House a couple of blocks away from the hospital. About a week after that she was able to return home to Gloucester. But after only a day and a half she got a fever and had to go back to Children’s Hospital for another couple of weeks until that infection cleared up. She is home now and doing as well as can be expected at this point. She will pretty much have to exist as if under house arrest for the next year while her immune system rebuilds. Crowded environments are forbidden and no in-house guests. Friends can visit for a sit out in the yard or go for walks.
Hard as it has all been I’m counting our blessings. Just the fact alone of finding a compatible donor in the national database is very lucky. I’ve gotten a bit behind on internet related communication in part due to my own surgery on March 21st. Bone spurs & torn tendon in right rotator cuff. Sling 24/7 for 4 weeks. Could only play low whistles where the right hand finger holes naturally fell into reach for hand-in-sling. Went to a session with only Low F# through Low C. I was surprised at how much I actually played with a limited selection of keys (we do have singers who don’t always stick to D & G 
).I just finished week 5 (of 8 ) of physical therapy. I have a good deal of range of motion back but still a bit to go along with re-strengthening. So all whistles are playable now as well as concertinas, but I have to hold off on the Scottish smallpipes and bodhrán until my right arm has improved. Fortuantely for the piping I have a redpipe & technopipe to fall back on until then.
Thanks to all for continued prayers and positive thoughts for Evlin. I’m so glad she is starting the year of confinement in the Spring so that there are three seasons of outdoor weather ahead for being able to hang with friends outside. I imagine the winter is going to be rough but the light at the end of the tunnel will be that much closer.

Gosh, but she’s a beautiful young woman, David!
Best wishes for you all, and for Evlin’s steady, continuing recovery. (I won’t say speedy, because I think that these things are supposed to take the time they take.)
All the best
Ben
She has an inner beauty as well as an outer beauty. Wonderful picture!
Very best wishes.
What a wonderful portrait of you both – Evlin is absolutely beautiful.
